Hey Motorola, yeah you...Mr all my eggs in one basket. Yes you know im talking to you. Dont you guys know HTC just reinvented themselves? Dont you realize that they've jumped on the bandwagon of every phone for everyone just as Samsung did? No? You didnt notice that? Shame on you.
Thats what a typical conversation between myself and Motorola would probably sound like, I bet your interested why? Well as I said in my last post Motorola puts all there eggs in one basket and makes certain that one phone does very well in sales, ergo the Droid family for Verizon. But its time they take a page from HTC and Samsung (yes ive said this but im gonna elaborate onto this thought).
Consumers love Motorola, honestly who doesn't? They can produce quality handsets, it just seems at times? They lack reinvention....mainly from handset to handset...take for example the Droid to the Droid 2 could you tell them apart? No you couldn't the only difference happened to be the internals...Droid x to the Droid x2? Exact same issue....now are the phones amazing devices? Yes they are there are still some Droid 2 owners with the device rooted who wouldn't care less that the device is aging quickly. I commend their spirits and love the fact that they can stick with a device for such a time.
Now to this HTC one series (which I also touched on in a past article) there are 3 devices in the family the HTC one x (international version) which is the high power tegra 3 lte HD monster. The HTC one x, which still counts as a high end superphone with its snapdragon s4 dual core professor beautiful 4.3 inch screen and lands in at 8.9mm thin. And the affordable (even off contract) HTC one v, this 3.7 inch screen single core device isn't to be overlooked as it still lands with ice cream sandwich just as its older brothers do. HTC provided you with 3 phones, in flavors that everyone could sip on.
Now Samsung...Sammy, the big company that does a little bit of everything and excels at it yes? The galaxy s series, Samsung bada, they produce their own chips...Samsung does it all. I would honestly say they need to reinvent themselves but since they do reach to all consumers they have that cushion whereas it isn't as large a deal as other companies. Is it true that amoled may be slightly dated now? Maybe but thats not why we're here today, we're here because they do things that Motorola could take a look into doing, providing handsets in all flavors, sizes, and budgets. I mean lets look at it...for sprint they have the transform series, low end phones that are very capable. But also the current generation of galaxy s known as the epic 4g touch. As far as att they have the captivate glide, a reinvent of the original captivate we witnessed over a year ago, with a keyboard added. But also they have the current Gen galaxy s...I mean they reach to everyone without forcing high end on you....sadly for their tablets? This idea hasn't trickled down...but who's to say this won't happen right?
Motorola? I implore you to hop onto the quad core war...as u guys are losing that, Samsung has exynos on deck and the one x by HTC is landing with tegra 3 in tow. Being with ti, and qualcomm is sorely dampening your r&d department and its about time you venture out and make some new things happen, maybe take the apple approach and contract a company to exclusively make chips for you. At this point it isn't such a bad idea, but what do I know right? Im just an avid consumer with a lust for technology.
